Are you ready to take the lead on high-profile construction projects that serve a greater mission?

We’re looking for a Construction Project Manager with a sharp mind, steady hands, and a heart for public service. If you thrive in dynamic environments, can guide multi-million-dollar federal construction projects from blueprint to ribbon-cutting, and want to work with a purpose-driven organization—this is your moment.

You won’t just manage projects. You’ll be a trusted advisor to our Department of Defense client—offering Owner’s Representative services, protecting government interests, and delivering excellence at every phase.

✨ Represent the Owner with confidence and clarity, from pre-bid through punch list.

✨ Develop scopes of work, cost estimates, technical validations, and construction schedules.

✨ Conduct site evaluations, code compliance reviews, and on-the-ground walkthroughs.

✨ Track submittals, permits, invoices, and progress—staying laser-focused on timelines and budgets.

✨ Lead and contribute to weekly and monthly project meetings.

✨ Mentor junior team members and foster a collaborative, high-performance team culture.

✨ Report project performance using Excel and web-based tools, and deliver insights to senior leaders.

🎯 What You Bring

Bachelor’s in Construction Management, Engineering, or Architecture

5+ years of construction experience (or an active GC license with 15–25+ years of relevant experience)

✅ Experience in Federal or DoD construction environments preferred

✅ A knack for ownership, initiative, and leadership

✅ Ability to pass a Public Trust Clearance (HSPD-12 background check)

U.S. Citizenship required

💡 Preferred, But Not Required:

🏛 Experience with Washington Headquarters Services (WHS) or projects in the Pentagon

📋 PMP certification or similar credentials

💼 Why Join Us?

This isn’t just another construction role. You’ll be part of a mission-driven team supporting some of the nation’s most impactful infrastructure projects. We prioritize people, growth, and purpose. If you value loyalty, expertise, and delivering exceptional results—we’re the team for you.

💰 Compensation & Benefits
